(i)
| r+ mode | w+ mode |
|---|---|
| Primary function is reading. | Primary function is writing. |
| If the file does not exist, it results in an error. | If the file does not exist, it creates a new file. |
(ii)
def copyData():
fobj = open("SPORT.DATA", "rb")
fobj1 = open("BASKET.DAT", "wb")
cnt = 0
try:
while True:
data = pickle.load(fobj)
print(data)
if data[0] == "Basket Ball":
pickle.dump(data, fobj1)
cnt +=1
except:
fobj.close()
fobj1.close()
return cnt
